Final state interactions in electron scattering at high missing energies and momenta

Calculations of two-step rescattering and pion emission for the 12C(e,e'p) reaction at very large missing energies and momenta are compared with recent data from TJNAF. For parallel kinematics, final state interactions are strongly reduced by kinematical constraints. A good agreement between calculation and experiment is found for this kinematics when one admits the presence of high momentum components in the nuclear wave function.
